Mail-in voting applications in Texas are supposed to be sent to local election offices. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick's campaign delayed thousands of ballot requests by misdirecting them. The delay leaves little room for voters to fix potential issues.

The lieutenant governor’s campaign said it used the secretary of state's address because “many Republican voters are rightly suspicious of Blue County election officials.” The delayed delivery could put voters’ requests for mail-in ballots at risk as counties continue to see higher-than-normal rejection rates of applications under new ID requirements enacted by Republicans last year. Any issues with defective applications must be resolved by Friday so voters can receive a mail-in ballot.
